SEEDSMEN PICK CHICAGO. 



The executive committee of the 

 American Seed Trade Association met 

 at the Hotel Bristol, New York city, 

 November 15 and selected Chicago as 

 the place for the 1919 convention, the 

 date to be announced later. There were 

 present, besides the president and sec- 

 retary, Howard M. Earl, Washington, 



D. C; Kirby B. White, Detroit, Mich.; 



E. L. Page, Greene, N. Y., and L. H. 

 Vaughan, Chicago, of the committee; S. 



F. Willard, Charles Guelph and Lee and 

 David Don by invitation. 



A tentative program was arranged 

 and the association finances discussed. 

 It was decided to offer an amendment 

 to the by-laws on the latter subject at 

 the next convention.

NO SEED PEOFITEERINO. 



Western Seedsmen Warned. 



Profiteering in the seed business dur- 

 ing the next few months will destroy 

 the fine record the trade has made for 

 loyalty to the government, the members 

 of the Western Seedsmen's Association 

 were warned by President H. A. Johns, 

 at the conference held at Kansas City, 

 November 9. President Johns opened 

 the meeting with an appeal to all seeds- 

 men to help the government increase 

 food production during 1919. It was de- 

 clared that peace will have the effect of 

 creating a greater demand for food- 

 stuffs, instead of lessening it; that as a 

 consequence war-time prices of vege- 

 tables will be continued, and that there 

 will be more war gardens next year than 

 ever before. 



The afternoon session of the confer- 

 ence was given over to those seedsmen 

 who deal in field seeds and was pre- 

 sided over by Guy Purcell, of W. H. 

 Small & Co., Evansville, Ind. Mr. Jack- 

 man, formerly with Vaughan 's Seed 

 Store, Chicago, who was a prisoner in 

 Germany for many months, gave an ac- 

 count of his experiences.
